Camila Cabello is turning up the heat… and the romance! The two-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated multi-platinum and chart-topping singer/songwriter shared two new singles today, Shameless and Liar!
Making for a momentous return by the songstress, the new songs start the era of her mega-anticipated second album, Romance. It represents her most personal music to date, drawing directly from autobiographical experiences and translating them into unforgettable songs.
“These songs are basically the story of my life the past couple years and the stories I’ve accumulated,” Camila said. Adding, “I knew for a long time I wanted my album to be called Romance because these stories are about falling in love.”
After changing her online platforms following a powerhouse turn at the MTV VMAs — can you say one steamy performance with boyfriend Shawn Mendes? I think I’m still recovering from how HOT that was! Camila invited listeners into this world through a series of intensely personal social media posts. She unveiled the title in this video, unlocking her heart quite literally. In the follow-up clip, she went even deeper. Next up, she dropped a clip with the song titles, another with the artwork, and finally a teaser for the Shameless music video.
The songs similarly mirror this evolution. The emotionally charged Shameless showcases a seismic vocal performance from the superstar, stretching from intimate verses into an overpowering refrain over hypnotic guitar, a thick bass line, and propulsive percussion.
On the other end of the spectrum, swaggering horns kick off the boisterous and bold Liar as it channels Latin vibes underneath the irresistible hook, “Oh no, there you go, making me a liar, I kinda like it though.” We can only hope this is the sexy vibe that Camila goes with for this second album!
The sexy and stunning music video for Shameless was directed by Henry Scholfield [Billie Eilish, Dua Lipa & Rosalia].
Next up, she performs for Saturday Night Live for the very first time on October 12. Be sure to tune in! Plus, she received a total of three nominations in top categories at the People’s Choice Awards on November 10 broadcast on E!. These include “Female Artist of 2019,” “Song of 2019 – ‘Señorita’,” and “Music Video of 2019 – ‘Señorita’.”
